Lest we forget you're comparing EG vs SNA to a version of dota with unlimited and cheaper buybacks. The term ' Chinese dota ' as a term for farmy safe turtle play [ which in itself is already a huge misunderstanding of that playstyle ] comes from dota 1. Not the early days of dota 2. The exact same misuse carried over and guess what it came from foreigners misunderstanding the same term in dota1.

I mean come on people.

Blog's moot at this point.

EDIT: Or maybe not, I misread the new numbers I guess. 1/3 cut across the board. If these had been the numbers from the beginning, I probably would not have written a blog.

it was just that they could turtle better and had better mechanics than western teams

that and after seeing first games in 6.82 this= blog seems ridiculous

Personally I prefer a more farm-oriented, 4-protect-1 game. So this is awesome for me tbh.

This blog is definitely on point. In my last couple of games I have seen similar events happening as described by OP

The rubber band is real but it doesn't feel like the meta should shift by that much. Maybe Terrorblade will be a bigger effect.

Chinese dota was like several months in 2010 and only because it worked. As soon as smokes and TP delays were added it ended.

Silly Slesh and Toby created the myth early in Dota2 and some chinese teams played that way because of the limited hero pool.

I'm really enjoying the patch as far as pubs go.
Too many times in 6.82 was the game over at minute 15.

I personally like the patch alot, as far as pubgames go. Conisdering how pubs typically are not afraid of pushing or throwing it makes for great back and forth games. Havnt had the chance to follow comp games all that much but im hoping it will make ppl play around wirh different ractics alot
